Meet The Man Who Funds ISIS: Bilal Erdogan, The Son Of Turkey's President

Meet The Man Who Funds ISIS: Bilal Erdogan, The
Son Of Turkey's PresidentBy Tyler
DurdenNovember 26, 2015 "Information
Clearing House" - "Zero
Hedge" - Russia's Sergey Lavrov is
not one foreign minister known to mince his words. Just earlier
today, 24 hours after a Russian plane was brought down by the
country whose president
three years ago said "a short-term border violation can never be
a pretext for an attack", had this to say: "We have serious doubts
this was an unintended incident and believe this is a planned
provocation" by Turkey.But even that was tame compared to what Lavrov
said to his Turkish counterparty Mevlut Cavusoglu earlier today
during a phone call between the two (Lavrov who was supposed to
travel to Turkey has since canceled such plans).As
Sputnik transcribes, according to a press release from Russia’s
Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Lavrov pointed out that, "by shooting
down a Russian plane on a counter-terrorist mission of the Russian
Aerospace Force in Syria, and one that did not violate Turkey’s
airspace, the Turkish government has in effect sided with
ISIS."It was in this context when Lavrov added that "Turkey’s
actions appear premeditated, planned, and undertaken with a specific
objective."More importantly, Lavrov pointed to Turkey’s role
in the propping up the terror network through the oil trade. Per the
Russian statement:

"The Russian Minister reminded his counterpart
about Turkey’s involvement in the ISIS’ illegal trade in oil,
which is transported via the area where the Russian plane was
shot down, and about the terrorist infrastructure, arms
and munitions depots and control centers that are also located
there."

Others reaffirmed Lavrov's stance, such as retired
French General Dominique Trinquand, who said that "Turkey is either
not fighting ISIL at all or very little, and does not interfere with
different types of smuggling that takes place on its border, be it
oil, phosphate, cotton or people," he said.The reason we find this line of questioning
fascinating is that just last week in the aftermath of the French
terror attack but long before the Turkish downing of the Russian
jet, we wrote about "The
Most Important Question About ISIS That Nobody Is Asking" in
which we asked who is the one "breaching every known law of
funding terrorism when buying ISIS crude, almost certainly with the
tacit approval by various "western alliance" governments, and why is
it that these governments have allowed said middleman to continue
funding ISIS for as long as it has?"Precisely one week later, in even more tragic
circumstances, suddenly everyone is asking this question.And while we patiently dig to find who the on
and offshore "commodity trading" middleman are, who cart away
ISIS oil to European and other international markets in exchange for
hundreds of millions of dollars, one name keeps popping up as the
primary culprit of regional demand for the Islamic State's
"terrorist oil" - that of Turkish president Recep Erdogan's son:
Bilal Erdogan.His very brief bio:

Necmettin Bilal Erdogan, commonly known as
Bilal Erdogan (born 23 April 1980) is the third child of Recep
Tayyip Erdo?an, the current President of Turkey. After graduating from Kartal Imam Hatip High
School in 1999, Bilal Erdogan moved to the US for
undergraduate education. He also earned a Masters Degree in John
F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University in 2004.
After graduation, he served in the World Bank as intern
for a while. He returned Turkey in 2006 and started to
his business life. Bilal Erdogan is one of the three equal
shareholders of "BMZ Group Denizcilik ", a marine
transportation corporation.

In the next few days, we will present a full
breakdown of Bilal's various business ventures, starting with his
BMZ Group which is the name implicated most often in the smuggling
of illegal Iraqi and Islamic State through to the western supply
chain, but for now here is a brief, if very disturbing snapshot, of
both father and son Erdogan by F. William Engdahl, one which should
make everyone ask whether the son of Turkey's president (and thus,
the father) is the silent mastermind who has been responsible for
converting millions of barrels of Syrian Oil into hundreds of
millions of dollars of Islamic State revenue.By F. William Engdahl, posted originally in
New Eastern Outlook:
Erdogan's Dirth Dangerous ISIS GamesMore and more details are
coming to light revealing that the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria,
variously known as ISIS, IS or Daesh, is being fed and kept alive by
Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the Turkish President and by his Turkish
intelligence service, including MIT, the Turkish CIA. Turkey, as a
result of Erdogan’s pursuit of what some call a Neo-Ottoman Empire
fantasies that stretch all the way to China, Syria and Iraq,
threatens not only to destroy Turkey but much of the Middle East if
he continues on his present path.

In
October 2014 US Vice President Joe Biden told a Harvard gathering
that Erdogan’s regime was backing ISIS with “hundreds of millions of
dollars and thousands of tons of
weapons…” Biden later apologized clearly for tactical reasons to
get Erdo?an’s permission to use Turkey’s Incirlik Air Base for
airstrikes against ISIS in Syria, but the dimensions of Erdogan’s
backing for ISIS since revealed is far, far more than Biden hinted.

ISIS militants were trained by US, Israeli and now it emerges, by
Turkish special forces at secret bases in Konya Province inside the
Turkish border to Syria, over the past three
years. Erdo?an’s involvement in ISIS goes much deeper. At a time
when Washington, Saudi Arabia and even Qatar appear to have cut off
their support for ISIS, they remaining amazingly durable. The reason
appears to be the scale of the backing from Erdo?an and his fellow
neo-Ottoman Sunni Islam Prime Minister, Ahmet Davuto?lu.

Nice Family Business

The
prime source of money feeding ISIS these days is sale of Iraqi oil
from the Mosul region oilfields where they maintain a stronghold.
The son of Erdogan it seems is the man who makes the export sales of
ISIS-controlled oil possible.

Bilal Erdo?an owns several maritime companies. He has
allegedly signed contracts with European operating companies to
carry Iraqi stolen oil to different Asian countries. The Turkish
government buys Iraqi plundered oil which is being produced from the
Iraqi seized oil wells. Bilal Erdogan’s maritime companies own
special wharfs in Beirut and Ceyhan ports that are transporting
ISIS’ smuggled crude oil in Japan-bound oil
tankers.

Gürsel Tekin vice-president of the Turkish Republican Peoples’
Party, CHP, declared in a recent Turkish media interview, “President
Erdogan claims that according to international transportation
conventions there is no legal infraction concerning Bilal’s illicit
activities and his son is doing an ordinary business with the
registered Japanese companies, but in fact Bilal Erdo?an is up to
his neck in complicity with terrorism, but as long as his father
holds office he will be immune from any judicial prosecution.”
Tekin adds that Bilal’s maritime
company doing the oil trades for ISIS, BMZ Ltd, is “a family
business and president Erdogan’s close relatives hold shares in BMZ
and they misused public funds and took illicit loans from Turkish
banks.”

In
addition to son Bilal’s illegal and lucrative oil trading for ISIS,
Sümeyye Erdogan, the daughter of the Turkish President apparently
runs a secret hospital camp inside Turkey just over the Syrian
border where Turkish army trucks daily being in scores of wounded
ISIS Jihadists to be patched up and sent back to wage the bloody
Jihad in Syria, according to the testimony of a nurse who was
recruited to work there until it was discovered she was a member of
the Alawite branch of Islam, the same as Syrian President Bashar
al-Assad who Erdogan seems hell-bent on
toppling.

Turkish citizen Ramazan Bagol, captured this month by Kurdish
People’s Defence Units,YPG, as he attempted to join ISIS from Konya
province, told his captors that said he was sent to ISIS by the
‘Ismailia Sect,’ a strict Turkish Islam sect reported to be tied to
Recep Erdogan. Baol said the sect recruits members and provides
logistic support to the radical Islamist organization. He added that
the Sect gives jihad training in neighborhoods of Konya and sends
those trained here to join ISIS gangs in
Syria.

According to French geopolitical analyst, Thierry Meyssan, Recep
Erdogan “organised the pillage of Syria, dismantled all the
factories in Aleppo, the economic capital, and stole the
machine-tools. Similarly, he organised the theft of archeological
treasures and set up an international market in Antioch…with the
help of General Benoît Puga, Chief of Staff for the Elysée, he
organised a false-flag operation intended to provoke the launching
of a war by the Atlantic Alliance – the chemical bombing of la
Ghoutta in Damascus, in
August 2013. “

Meyssan claims that the Syria strategy of Erdogan was
initially secretly developed in coordination with former French
Foreign Minister Alain Juppé and Erdogan’s then Foreign Minister
Ahmet Davuto?lu, in 2011, after Juppe
won a hesitant Erdogan to the idea of supporting the attack on
traditional Turkish ally Syria in return for a promise of French
support for Turkish membership in the EU. France later backed out,
leaving Erdogan to continue the Syrian bloodbath largely on his own
using
ISIS.

Gen. John R. Allen, an opponent of Obama’s Iran peace strategy, now
US diplomatic envoy coordinating the coalition against the Islamic
State, exceeded his authorized role after meeting with Erdogan and
“promised to create a "no-fly zone" ninety miles wide, over Syrian
territory, along the whole border with Turkey, supposedly intended
to help Syrian refugees fleeing from their government, but in
reality to apply the "Juppé-Wright plan". The Turkish Prime
Minister, Ahmet Davutoglu, revealed US support for the project on
the TV channel A Haber by launching a bombing raid against the PKK.”
Meyssan
adds.

There are never winners in war and Erdogan’s war against Syria’s
Assad demonstrates that in bold. Turkey and the world deserve
better. Ahmet Davutoglu’s famous “Zero Problems With Neighbors”
foreign policy has been turned into massive problems with all
neighbors due to the foolish ambitions of Erdogan and his gang.
